Enviably located a stone’s throw from the new St James Quarter, this spacious, two-bedroom, third-floor flat has a highly sought-after position in the New Town conservation area, set within easy reach of Waverley Station and the worldclass amenities the city centre has to offer. It forms part of a B-listed, late eighteenth-century, Georgian tenement, and is brought to market in a true move-in condition, following a full refurbishment at the end of 2016, which includes a new kitchen and bathroom, new oak flooring, a new boiler, and full rewiring and a new fuse board.
Reached via a shared entrance and stairwell, the flat’s front door opens into a central hall with built-in storage. Directly ahead is the living/dining room, which is decorated in crisp white and with a solid oak floor (found predominantly throughout). The lounge area is neatly organised around a traditional brick surround, whilst the dining space is slightly raised, cleverly zoning the two parts of the room. Furthermore, dual-aspect windows see lots of natural light, framing farreaching views across Edinburgh. Next door, the kitchen has a sophisticated style, fitted with handle-less cabinets and wooden worktops. A cherry-red splashback panel and a range of integrated appliances (brought new from 2016) add the finishing touch to the contemporary design (oven, gas hob, concealed extractor, fridge/freezer, a dishwasher, and washing machine). Meanwhile, the two double bedrooms echo the aesthetic of the living area. The spacious principal bedroom is equipped with a walk-in wardrobe, whereas the second bedroom, with a built-in wardrobe and storage set above, has an olive-toned accent wall and is currently arranged as an office. Conveniently situated between the two is a contemporary three-piece shower room, beautifully enveloped in sandy-toned tiling. Gas central heating ensures year-round comfort, alongside secondary-glazed windows in the livng room and bedrooms.
Outside, residents are within easy reach of Calton Hill and the iconic Arthur’s Seat. Controlled parking is available with a residents’ permit (Zone 2).
Extras: all fitted floor coverings, window blinds, select light fittings, and integrated appliances to be included in the sale.
